Has anyone here had any dealings with Tekton, particularly their subwoofers


As I explore options for replacing equipment I am it seems constantly finding new sources of components to consider. Tekton has appeared on my radar due to another thread here at audiogon. I just wondered if anyone has gone this direction for subwoofers in particular, but I also have questions about their full range speakers and what they are like to deal with. Given that the world of hi-fi has become even more of a smoke and mirrors game than it has been in the past, I am more cautious about who I am willing to throw down money for than I ever have been.

I would love to have ASR Amir and Erin over at my place blindfolded

🤔

 

thank you all for your comments and ideas. And the info about Amir and Tekton's squabble. It puts things in perspective for me. You guys may have saved me a great deal of heartache and trouble.

Try listening to a pair. Bring your own CD. Turn them up. Make your own decision. Best advice I can give.

I have Tekton double impacts and impact monitors.  Got the double impacts used and they crushed my existing speakers so much that I wanted to get the monitors as well.  Took a while to get but was expected,like 8 weeks after they initially said 6.  I ordered speaker cables and it took them months to send them after multiple promises to receive them.  They're a small company and I don't think they have enough employees it seems for customer service stuff.  They did send an extra pair of cables and apologized profusely, which is really nice I have to say.  I've since replaced those cables with better ones but they're nice as backups. 

To end my rant, I was going to buy subs but after the months of waiting on the wires and being told they'd ship immediately, I was a little soured on them for my subs and went with rhythmiks instead, which I HIGHLY recommend for subs.  Would love to hear a pair of 4-10s or 6-10s but felt I'd get a smoother experience with rhythmik.  For what it's worth, with my tektons tops and rhythmik bottoms, I'm at +/-3 DB frequency response from 25 hz to 20 khz at my listening position with limited room EQ.  Tekton has a pair of 4-10s on their specials for $1700.  Definitely tempting... but I do love my rhythmiks
